1) What he said.
2) I'd give Ritu the benefit of the doubt anyway, but that's just
'cause I've read all her posts. :)
3) I'm one of those people who doesn't mind spelling errors pointed
out; I spell fairly well and keep a dictionary at hand so I can
double-check spelling (and it turns out that some of the words I'm
checking, I would have gotten wrong with it). There are a few others
who don't mind it, as well. But when in doubt, maybe ask off-list how
the poster feels about corrections to spelling.
